Finally, after 10 o'clock in the evening, two more men in black came, and they came in by themselves without knocking on the door. But their expressions were a little nervous, and one of them was carrying a big bag, and they didn't know it and thought it was a thief who came to steal something! I don't know how the security guards downstairs let them in?

However, the master seemed to know them, and got up to say hello. After the buyer and seller were seated, one of the men in black took out the things from his bag one by one, all of which were large and small antiques such as porcelain vases, porcelain bowls, and ancient jade. After he took it out, he didn't give it to the master directly, but put it on the coffee table. The master didn't mean to reach out to pick it up, he waited for the thing to be stable on the coffee table before touching it, which seemed very cautious. After the master finished reading it, he just pushed it in front of me.

I didn't understand it at first, and I thought that they didn't talk about etiquette when doing business, and they didn't know how to deal with people at the most basic level, but I figured it out later. If something as fragile as an antique porcelain vase falls off when two people hand it over, it can't be tell. When the time comes, you say that he let go quickly, but he says that you caught it and didn't hold it steadily, and it became a rip when you pulled it around. Everything is placed on the coffee table, steady, who knocks it down, who misses, naturally it is clear at a glance, there is nothing to say.

I don't look at it as carefully as my master, basically just glance at it. The first four pieces all have some residual yin qi, but fortunately, it's not resentment. It shows that these four things have just been taken out of the Yin Mansion, but there are no ghosts in the Yin Mansion. There is a difference between yin and resentment, and resentment is born from yin. Yin energy is to ghosts what water is to fish, and if you stay in a place where there is no yin qi for a long time, the ghost will have its soul damaged until it is gone. At the same time, ghosts can absorb yin qi and generate resentment, and the heavier the resentment, the more powerful the ghost. Yin cultivation can also absorb yin energy, but after cultivating into the dantian, it becomes yin power.

The fifth and sixth pieces that the man took out were porcelain bowls, which were clean and had no problems at all. It means that this is a thing in the yang world, or it has been out of the yin house for a long time, and the yin energy has long since dissipated. I followed my master's instructions and put the first four antiques on the left side of the coffee table, and the last two on the right side. But as soon as the last one was taken out of my bag, I frowned. It was a small snuffbox, small things, and no small grievances. The master couldn't see it, and opened the lid to smell it. As soon as the small lid was opened, a wisp of black gas suddenly emerged from inside.

The master pushed the snuffbox to me, and I just looked at the mouth of the bottle to make sure that there was no ghost hiding in it, and then returned it to the master. The master was stunned for a moment, and the expressions of the two people opposite immediately became strange.

The master thought about it, but returned the snuff bottle to the two sellers, and said, "I won't accept this thing from you." I'll use the calculator to calculate the other seven pieces, and I'll give you a price. ”

A man in black on the other side seemed to be smiling angrily, and he said very unceremoniously: "Heh, is your little master okay?" These three pieces are definitely white road goods! He said, gesturing to the snuff box and the other two porcelain bowls.

The master obviously hesitated, and the other party's reaction showed that they didn't seem to be lying. The master looked at me again and said, "Those two wait a minute, let's go out and discuss." With that, he called me out.

We walked out into the hallway outside the store to talk. The master asked me if I saw it? I answer in the affirmative, not mistaken!

The master still hesitated, and finally took out his mobile phone and called the mustache. After saying a few words, he handed me the phone and said, "You come and tell the boss directly!" ”

The mustache asked on the phone, "What's the situation with that snuffbox?" ”

I said, "There's a lot of resentment on that thing. This kind of thing is likely to be specially used for ghosts, maybe it is used to raise ghosts! ”

The mustache didn't ask any more questions, and asked me to return the phone to the master, and then said a few more words to the master. Master hung up the phone and went back to the store, and I followed.

"Since you two said it was a white road goods, can you tell me where you got it from?" The master asked as soon as he entered.

The two men in black both frowned, and one of them said, "Master, don't you always ask about the source of goods according to your rules here?" ”

"That's right." Master nodded, "But the price of black road goods and white road goods is different when we receive them." If you two are willing to say, I can charge this snuffbox at a higher price. ”

The two men in black looked even more confused. The two of them got together and bit their ears a few words, and finally said to the master: "This is still not very compliant." These three things are definitely white road goods, no problem! But since we brought it to you, we naturally don't want to reveal the information of the master's family. Master, you can just bid the same price as the other four. ”

Seeing that the other party said so, the master didn't want to continue to ask. He brought the calculator, priced the seven antiques one by one, and then calculated the total number for the man in black to see. The man in black returned a price, but the master shook his head resolutely and refused to give in. The two men in black bit their ears again, and finally agreed to make a deal.

The master called the mustache again in front of them and told him the price of the deal. The mustache quickly transferred the money to the other party's bank account. After both parties confirm the payment of the goods, the transaction is completed. The two men in black were not polite and quickly left the antique city.

The master is putting all the antiques he collected in the back office, and as for where to put them, I can't follow up to see them. I'm not good at antiques, and I don't know anything about market prices, white roads, and black roads, but the mustache money is given so simply, or bank transfers, it is estimated that the price must be very low, otherwise the risk is too great.

When the master came out, he asked me if I was leaving, or would I stay here for the night? I didn't have anywhere to go back to school at this time, so I replied, "Stay!" "The master didn't chase me away, but just told me to close the door of the shop before going to bed, and then he left.

I locked the door and spent the night on the couch. For someone like me, who often stays up late in the grave, finishing work at one o'clock in the morning and having a sofa to sleep on is already a good treatment.

The next day was Thursday, and I had classes in the morning. So, I woke up early. I didn't expect the mustache to come early, and he arrived at half past six, which saved me from calling him again.

While putting on my shoes, I asked the mustache: "Why don't you do the simple work yourself, and hire me to help the master with his eyes?" ”

The mustache said: "I'm the boss on the surface, and it's not good to come forward directly when this kind of transaction occurs." Besides, look at this, you yin cultivators are more professional than us. ”

I was right when I thought about it. Unlike us Yin cultivators who have to deal with yin qi every day, Dao cultivators may be able to see whether there is yin qi or resentment on antiques, but they may not be able to see the difference between the two and the degree of severity.

The mustache went into the office, and then he found the snuffbox and looked at it with his own eyes, and made sure again. Then he suddenly asked me, "Is it possible, this is Xiao Jiuhe's thing?" ”

I was surprised to hear the name again. I muttered, "What do you say? This snuffbox has a lid, and the ghost himself will not go to find such a thing with a lid to live in, because it is inconvenient to enter and exit, and it is easy to be controlled. But just with such a small snuffbox, it is difficult to determine that it has something to do with Xiao Jiuhe. After all, besides him, there must be other people who know how to raise ghosts. ”

The mustache listened to my analysis, nodded and said, "What you said makes sense." At least I know that in the entertainment industry, business circles, and even officialdom, there are also people who are popular in raising ghosts. ”

When I saw him talking about Xiao Jiuhe, I asked casually, "Haven't you traced Xiao Jiuhe's whereabouts?" ”

The mustache shook his head and said, "Based on the information you provided us in Nanting last year, we have been tracking down this guy. This guy is full of evil and ruthless, he doesn't just harm ordinary people, according to the internal statistics of the Maoshan Dao Association, the deaths of at least five Taoist cultivators are related to him. Before, we launched the province's Daomen to track him down, and even asked the public security to help, and the internal reward has been increased to 300,000! ”

"Three hundred thousand?" I was stunned and surprised.

"For catching such a dangerous person, a reward of 300,000 is not too much! It is said that it may continue to rise! "The mustache's expression is serious, not like a joke." But at present, we have only found out that he is hiding somewhere in the provincial capital, and he continues to harm people everywhere. Therefore, the Daomen on this side of the provincial capital are very nervous, and they must track down any clues as soon as they are caught. ”

Xiao Jiuhe, that guy is really hard to deal with. That time, if it weren't for the fact that Master brought out an "artifact" kitchen knife at a critical time, maybe Master and I would have become victims. However, Xiao Jiuhe was also severely injured by my master that time, and he should not have recovered his original strength now, so he will hide.

The mustache put away the snuffbox, took out a stack of hundred-dollar bills, counted three for me, and said, "This is your commission last night." ”

I thanked him and put the money in my pocket. Finally, I made money again, and I easily earned three hundred, which was much more comfortable than my hard work in the ghost market.

The mustache said to me again: "This kind of palm work is not done every day. Would you like to go out with me on a mission? The commission will definitely be more than that. ”

"What mission?" I'd love to have more money to make, but I'd have to ask first.

"Ghost hunting!" The mustache said simply and clearly, "It's similar to how you and your master went out to do things before." But we don't have so many vain things here, we don't read the scriptures, we don't dance the gods, we just hunt ghosts! ”

"What should I do if I catch the ghost?" This is a matter of principle that involves me, and it is all the more necessary to ask it clearly.

The mustache said, "Since I promised you, I will discuss it with you when the time comes." Don't worry, I won't kill ghosts casually, most of the time I just overtake them. ”

When I saw him promise again, I nodded and agreed. The mustache told me that he had just received a task, but it was not in a hurry, and told me to go back and rest first, and come back to him tomorrow Friday afternoon.
